Bi-Rite Market

Love this location of Bi-rite! Conveniently located on Polk Street, they have all the essentials + all the unique goods you would expect to find at Bi-rite. They have a great selection of produce, prepared food, and sandwiches. They also have pie (including their banana cream pie!) and ice cream cake available. The location is clean and fairly spacious with minimal wait times. Definitely on the pricier side, but I guess that's part of the Bi-rite brand.

Interesting store as I've heard about this place and wanted to check it out. Previous reviews did say this was gonna be a pricey place...and it definitely is. It's actually above Whole Foods prices even at quality produce and things, even with their claimed sources of many items. It's worth checking this place out for the experience, but I cannot imagine this as a weekly grocery place - it's just not practical and many items costs more than if you got a quality take out. The fresh product selection had some nice items, ranging about $2.99 to $5.99 per pound. For reference, bananas here at the time of this post was $1.79 a pound. Did it taste any different or, "organically fresher" than your regular supermarket bananas at a third of the price? NOPE. They don't have frozen food here, some microwaveable meals that averaged about $14.99-$16.99 an entree. Potato chips were about $6.99 a large bag. Fun to have visited, but might be my only visit quite honestly. Unless you just want some fancy groceries, you can maybe pass on this store.

I was grocery shopping a few weeks ago and they had samples of the Lone Mountain sandwich. While I already had dinner plans, I almost threw them out the window and ordered this sandwich then and there. I ended up coming back the following week to try the full sandwich and it did NOT disappoint. It was so divine I can't even describe. Perfect flavors, not dry, yummy focaccia, 10/10 perfection. It was so good that I literally went back the next day and got the exact same thing. Sometimes the line can get long, so consider ordering ahead online. Bi-rite as a grocery store is great too. Upscale, a bit pricey, but yummy food. My FAVORITE premade bite is the avocado chicken salad - SO yummy on sourdough. I used to get it twice a week per my pregnancy cravings.

We got sandos from bi-rite for a little picnic and they were excellent!! I loved the lone mountain (better than the sutro in my opinion)! The focaccia was excellent with flavorful toppings and plenty of meat! Sandwiches in SF can be pricy but imo this one's worth it at $14.Will be coming back for it again!

At Bi-Rite Market, there's produce available as we walk in. Then upon walking down the aisle, they have pastas, salads, and sandwiches prepared and packed. The variety looks so good.This is a well lit store with friendly staff here. Not too bad, I like it.Everything here is well lined up on the shelves, always a good thing.When looking for salads and sandwiches packed and ready to eat, come on in to Bi-Rite on Polk.Also, they do have trays of fresh made pasta ready for serving as lunch or dinner.Feel free to check it out.

I told the people that this was a service animal, and they still insisted me go park my dog out front, I will not be going in this location again instead, I will spend money elsewhere where I'm not hassled over my dog and the options for food have more variety and the prices are less. Your reply was not very helpful and I'm sorry that your company has such a policy. If you're not aware you're in a dog friendly city, I don't know any other grocery store that has a problem with it so maybe this store should figure out what the other ones are doing right because people are spending a lot more money at those stores they can bring their dogs into!

New Bi-Rite on Polk...similar to the others on Divisadero, Mission, etc..smaller grocery store with variety ...this one on Polk is newer...different experience..got lunch sandwich and panna cotta..

Having a BiRite Market is a definite plus (+) for the Russian Hill Neighborhood. A big step up from the Real Foods Company grocery store which it replaced. The prepared foods (grab and go salads and entrées are delicious!) are pricey!Since I used to venture to the Mission street store in the past before it got really overcrowded then switched to the Divisadero (Nopa) store later, I got to say I'm liking this space. It's the largest BiRite in the City! But I was hoping they would have a scoop counter for their ice cream. When the Nopa store stopped serving ice cream, it was a huge loss imho.When I stopped by on Sunday mid-afternoon, the store was not too busy. The cashiers were not overwhelmed and I found the person who helped me not friendly (at all). This is a sad start on the customer service front. I will, however, shop here again. I'll report back with how it goes.

Well nice, clean, well-lit, and brand new-feeling market. All the produce looks perfect and a great selection of artisanal quality products available across all the product categories.Staff seem to be friendly but don't really engage with the customers in the store. Would come back to try out the food that you order at the counter.

Bi-Rite is a great edition to the beautiful Polk street in San Francisco!! Though the food/entrees are good they are pricey!! The store alone is very cute and fun! They have a lot of grocery options so if you are will to splurge a bit on groceries I recommend coming here!
